Disney’s live-action “Bambi” remake will make the story more relatable for kids

Lindsey Anderson Beer, one of the co-writers behind the forthcoming live-action remake of Disney’s “Bambi,” recently shed light on the project’s approach to updating the beloved classic. In an interview with Collider, Beer discussed her involvement in the movie, although she had to step away from the project temporarily to direct her upcoming film, “Pet Sematary: Bloodlines.” Despite her brief hiatus, she shared insights into how the remake plans to adapt the story to resonate with modern audiences, especially children.

One of the key points Beer addressed is the sensitive issue of Bambi’s mother’s death, a poignant and memorable moment in the original 1942 animated film. Beer acknowledged that societal sensitivities have evolved over the years, particularly concerning how such themes are presented to children. She suggested that the live-action remake would handle this critical plot point in a more contemporary and thoughtful manner to ensure that it remains relatable and accessible to today’s youth.

Beer expressed her enthusiasm for introducing a new generation of children to the magic of “Bambi.” She emphasized that while certain Disney classics like “The Little Mermaid” and “Aladdin” from the 1990s have enjoyed enduring popularity, “Bambi” has not received the same level of attention among modern audiences. She described the original film as a work of art, noting its unique and timeless qualities. Beer also mentioned her observations of children who have never seen the original “Bambi,” a fact she finds regrettable given the film’s beauty and significance.

Regarding the live-action remake’s approach, Beer indicated that it would offer a fresh perspective on the story, possibly expanding its scope to engage contemporary viewers. While she didn’t delve into specific details, her comments suggested that the remake would aim to maintain the essence of “Bambi” while making it more relatable to today’s children.

As for the status of the live-action “Bambi,” it is still in early development, and no official release date has been announced. Sarah Polley, known for her work on “Women Talking,” is reportedly in talks to direct the film, which is expected to incorporate musical elements featuring songs by Kacey Musgraves. The screenplay credits include Lindsey Anderson Beer, Geneva Robertson-Dworet, Micah Fitzerman-Blue, and Noah Harpster, while Chris Weitz, Paul Weitz, and Andrew Miano serve as producers. Fans of the original animated classic are eagerly anticipating how this new adaptation will bring “Bambi” into the hearts of a new generation.
